York Mets selected Boston off of waivers. New York Mets The Mets were using Keith Miller, who is an infielder by trade, in centerfield prior to acquiring Boston. Boston immediately took over as the Mets' center fielder. He got off to a slow start (0-for his first-9), but soon began to hit. He went 3-for-4 with his first Mets home run on May 7 to lead the Mets to a 7-1 victory over the Houston Astros. Despite not debuting with the Mets until May 3, his first season as a Met turned out to be the finest season of his career. In a career high 366 at bats, he had a career high 45 RBIs and eighteen stolen bases (19 on the season, including one with the White Sox) while batting .273. Most importantly, he solidified centerfield with a .985 fielding percentage.

Injuries to Coleman caused him to miss more than half the season, however, and Boston logged 426 innings in center. During Spring training , an incident from the previous Spring plagued the Mets clubhouse. Boston, Coleman and Dwight Gooden were accused of rape by Cindy Powell, who was also a known associate of a fourth teammate, David Cone. Charges were dropped when Florida State Attorney Bruce Colton cited a lack of corroborating evidence and the nearly year long delay in the Powell's complaint as reasons for the unlikelihood of conviction. The bulk of Boston's playing time for the 1992 Mets involved subbing for injuries or suspensions of Coleman. Boston batted .249 with eleven home runs, which was third best on the team.
